Guess Check is a tip calculator built with PHP.
Submitted by: E Biddlecome
Time spent: 6+ hours spent in total
The following required functionality is complete:
- User can enter a bill amount, choose a tip percentage, and submit the form to see the tip and total values.
- Tip percentage choices use a PHP loop to output three radio buttons.
- PHP code sets reasonable default values for the form.
- PHP code confirms the presence and correct format of submitted values.
- Page indicates any form errors which need to be fixed.
- Submitted form values are retained when errors or results are shown.
The following optional features are implemented:
- Add support for custom tip percentage
- Add support for splitting the tip and total
The following additional features are implemented:
- Cute interface
- Javascript popup alerts for unacceptable input values
Here's a walkthrough of implemented user stories:

Describe any challenges encountered while building the app:
-
Implementing custom tip percentage & session management, I ran into a couple snafus that are probably easily solvable given enough time + coffee
-
With more time, I'd implement more best practices (such as breaking out code into separate files, using redirects, etc.)
